It's not clear how and when authorities discovered Ramee's vehicle had been stolen. But a Sheriff's Office deputy working a security detail at the hospital seized the keys, the arrest report said.

Armstrong, 3035 Bienville St., New Orleans, and Ramee, of 7142 Yorktown Drive, New Orleans, were booked with possession of stolen property worth more than $1,500 just after 6 a.m. Monday at the Jefferson Parish Correctional Center in Gretna. No bond information was available on Wednesday.
